Our Verdict

Ansible for the Absolute Beginner - Hands-On offers an in-depth introduction to Ansible and YAML basics for Linux beginners. With a knowledgeable instructor, hands-on exercises, and decent content, the course strives to provide an engaging learning experience. However, issues with presentation design and delivery, as well as limitations of the KodeKloud platform, result in room for improvement.

What We Liked

  • Thorough coverage of Ansible basics and YAML syntax for beginners
  • Hands-on exercises using KodeKloud help reinforce theoretical concepts
  • Instructor knowledgeable about Ansible and related technologies
  • Clear and understandable accent, making it easier to follow lectures

Potential Drawbacks

  • Monotone delivery affects engagement and makes following complex topics harder
  • Presentation can be confusing at times, with lack of emphasis on crucial aspects
  • KodeKloud platform has issues—buggy, crashes mid-lesson, no 'undo' button
  • Linux command prerequisites could have been introduced within the course
